Twelve barrows
Twelve barrows submitted by Bladup : In the foreground of this photo you can just see two low barrows. In the distance are a further three and behind me is the largest at 2.3m high, but it's totally overgrown and invisible. Pastscape says 21 barrows exist here. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Pastscape says there are 21 barrows between SW 79255556 & SW 79505532, therefore making this a very large barrow cemetery.
